AmaZulu coach says he had to make changes to his game plan to account for the bumpy field

AmaZulu coach Benni McCarthy has slammed a “horrendous pitch” at Sisa Dukashe Stadium in East London‚ where his team edged Chippa United 1-0 in the Premier Soccer League on Wednesday‚ and questioned how the ground “gets approved by the league”.

“You know‚ it wasn’t the prettiest. Chippa made it really hard for us to play our usual game that we are accustomed to‚” McCarthy said. “But you know what‚ the character the boys showed to change tactics‚ to play a completely different game from what we are accustomed to‚ and making it effective. At times you just have to accept football is about football and it’s about winning games — and sometimes you don’t have to make it pretty.

McCarthy‚ in his post-match TV interview‚ suggested Chippa had taken the game to East London because they knew AmaZulu were a ball-playing team on form. The Eastern Cape team have spread their home matches between their main home ground‚ the 2010 World Cup venue Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Gqeberha, and Sisa Dukashe.
